After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

Chapter 60 Taking the opportunity to make a request

Princess Zhaoyang was a little confused.

At this moment, the hall was full of tension. She didn't care about being sad, and hurried forward to pick up the yellow envelope that Zhong Ning put on the table to check it.

Then, with complicated eyes, she raised her head and looked directly at Zhong Ning's figure who was still struggling to leave.

Although she was indeed very touched that her father made such a concession for her reputation and fabricated a story about a princess who had been exiled to the common people.

But how noble is the identity of the royal family?

What she couldn't understand was why Zhong Ning was so resistant?

Can there really be someone in this world who is so indifferent to fame and fortune?

Princess Zhaoyang asked herself if she were in a different place, she would probably not be able to do it.

She dared to elope because she was confident.

The emperor has only one daughter, and he will not ignore her. Xiao Yu does not dare to treat her harshly for the sake of the royal family's reputation.

Now that my father has issued a secret order, we must find a princess who meets the requirements as soon as possible. Guard Zhong is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

"Sister," Princess Zhaoyang took the initiative to step forward, looking at the struggling Zhong Ning with earnest eyes, "Sister, you and I are sisters. Let's return to the palace together and share the honor. Don't you want to be the superior of that person?"

"Heh!" Zhong Ning sneered.

"You're saying it nicely. You're a princess of the current dynasty, the emperor's beloved daughter, with such a noble status, yet you're eloping for the so-called freedom. Why would I, a free person, want to get into such a cage?"

Zhong Ning responded directly in a harsh tone.

It feels bad to be suppressed.

She closed her eyes, tightened her internal strength throughout her body, and continuously impacted the acupuncture points!

The powerful internal force overflowed from the body and instantly broke through all the restraints.

The people closest to her were all flung away by this sudden burst of internal energy.

Before Qi Yu's internal energy exploded, he instinctively stood in front of Princess Zhaoyang and protected her tightly.

Seeing that Zhong Ning was about to run away again, he didn't care about his face anymore, and spun around, grabbed the man's arm tightly, and shouted:

"You can ask for anything, as long as you agree..."

Zhong Ning glanced at him and asked, "Can you make the emperor's decision?"

Qi Yu was speechless.

His Majesty only gave him three days to find a woman of the same age, preferably without any family ties, who could serve as a chess piece for him.

Once a lie is told, it will take countless lies to cover it up.

All he could do now was to try his best to complete the task given to him by the emperor.

But he didn't dare to act on his own to agree to some unknown requests on behalf of the emperor!

"I can! All of this is due to me. I can, on behalf of my father, agree to any request from Guard Zhong." Princess Zhaoyang immediately affirmed, "But it cannot be done without moral integrity or against the law!"

"Okay, I only have three requests. First, I want my marriage to be my own. No one can arrange it for me."

"can!"

"Secondly, I don't like being bullied. I can cooperate when needed, but otherwise, I can do whatever I want. For example, if the matter has been resolved and my cooperation is no longer needed, I can leave at any time, and no one is allowed to stop me!"

"no problem!"

"Third, Qi Yu previously promised a mansion with ten thousand taels of gold. Now something unexpected has happened, so he must double the reward. After the matter is completed, all of it must be paid!"

"Of course!"

Princess Zhaoyang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard Zhong Ning's request.

Fortunately, there was nothing special about it. Even if she agreed to everything, I think her father would understand.

"Well, words are not enough, let me prove it with writing!" Zhong Ning coughed lightly and said this. Since he couldn't beat them, he would just join them.

Even if she doesn't have the brains to deal with those old foxes in the court, she still has space and can run away whenever she wants.

Afraid of a ghost!

All the trouble I just went through was just to make some demands on myself and increase my bargaining chips.

Soon, two copies of the handwritten document by Princess Zhaoyang were handed to Zhong Ning. The two of them signed and sealed the contract, and it came into effect.

"Then Sister Zhong, can we go back to Beijing together?" Princess Zhaoyang asked in a low voice.

"Well, sure. When do we leave? I need to take care of some personal matters, so I can leave anytime!"

"It will take three days at the fastest and five days at the slowest. If Miss Zhong has something important to do, you can go and deal with it first, but for safety reasons, I will send two more people to follow you!" Qi Yu waved his hand lightly, and the two Black Dragon Guards stepped forward to salute.

Zhong Ning rolled his eyes and walked straight to his room, saying as he walked, "I'll be there!"

It's so funny. She's about to leave and she hasn't even finished typing the storybook yet.

She had to work overtime to write the remaining chapters.

Otherwise I would be sorry for so many readers who follow me!

Seeing this, Qi Yu curled the corners of his lips slightly, then bowed and took his leave. He was about to set off, and he also needed to arrange some matters!

Princess Zhaoyang looked at Zhong Ning's back and pondered silently. She was about to leave and she hadn't gone shopping yet. She must find a way to go out with Sister Zhong tomorrow and take a walk first.

In the study room.

Zhong Ning held the thin brush and felt tired all over.

In the past, when she had plenty of time, she would use a fine brush to write slowly in order to avoid revealing any flaws, writing three or four chapters every day. Over such a long time, she had accumulated the content of two volumes.

At her original pace, she should have had several days to slack off, but now, she needed to finish the remaining thirteen chapters of the last volume within the next two days and two nights.

At this speed, she wouldn't be able to finish writing even by dawn.

Without thinking too much, she took out her pen and started writing. Her hand speed doubled, and she typed at an accelerated speed for two whole days.

A day and a half later, Zhong Ning finally finished writing the last word of the sixth volume. He was so tired that he couldn't even lift his hand. After putting the pen into the space, he fell asleep on the table.

Princess Zhaoyang hadn't seen anyone the whole day and thought Zhong Ning was still angry. After asking around, she found out that Zhong Ning had been staying in his room for the past two days.

He ate very little for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and all of them were brought to his room by his servants.

Princess Zhaoyang felt guilty and uneasy, so she asked someone to prepare a few exquisite side dishes and deliver them to the door personally.

"Sister Zhong, are you there? I'm here to bring you some food..." Princess Zhaoyang called out twice, but there was no response from inside. She felt uneasy, thinking that Zhong Ning was still angry. Seeing that the door was ajar, she pushed it open and walked in.

When she entered the room, it was quiet. Princess Zhaoyang looked around and then she noticed the figure sleeping soundly at the desk behind the pearl curtain.

She walked over quietly and put the lunch box aside. She saw a thick stack of papers on the desk, with dense handwriting on the papers.

As small as a fighting fly and as thin as a strand of black hair.

Princess Zhaoyang looked at it carefully and found that the content on the paper was the sequel to the story she had always wanted to know.

At present, she has only read the first volume and knows that Xu Xian has met and known Bai Niangzi and married her. He finally returned home and brought back two ingots of silver from the treasury.
